Darwin bent his back and looked exhausted.
He took offlis mask and looked at Savanna. Perhaps because she was afraid of hearing bad news, Savanna did not ask. She just stood there. While she was waiting in pain, Darwin said, âThe operation went smoothly.â
Just now Savannaâs heart was in her mouth, but she felt a little relieved after hearing what he said.
Before she could come to her sense, Darwinâs voice came into her ears again, âHowever, we will have to wait until the patient wakes up before we know the final result.â
Darwinâs words made Savanna feel like she had fallen into an icehouse.
Darwin walked past Savanna with a group of doctors. When Rex came out, he immediately saw Savanna, who was standing there with a pale face. Rex looked ahead and knew that Darwin, who had just left, should have told Savanna the results of the operation.
Rex took off the mask on his face. Jim kept blinking at him, signaling him to comfort Savanna. Rex nodded and waved to Jim to leave.
Jim immediately lest.
Rex sighed and patted Savanna on the shoulder. His voice was gentle and charming, âSavanna, donât worry. The operation was very successful. Dr. Sharp told you the worst result. His medical skills are excellent, but heâs bad at comforting people. Finally, he will surprise you.â
Savama raised her head and wanted to ask Rex. She looked up at the smile on Rexâs face. She suddenly seemed to have lost all her words and senses, and even more lost confidence and courage.
Rex seemed to be able to read minds. He understood what Savanna was thinking, Rex embraced her shoulder and walked her to the end of the aisle. The two of them leaned on the white bars, their eyes meeting, Rex said, âI told you before, no matter what the result is, you have to bear it bravely. Savanna, in my heart, you will always be the strongest girl. Last time, Brandon went to Spiritual Mountain to find medicine for you, and you survived. This time, I believe you will also get through.â
Savantta pursed her lips and did not speak. The corners of her mouth were tied up with her hair.
Rexâs pinkie hooked the strand of hair behind hercar.
After a long time, Savannasiplied, âI hope youâre right.â
However, she did not know what other hardships were waiting for her. Just as Rex had said, Brandon was sick She was the pillar of the family. She had to liold on Tye, Mandel, and the baby in her belly all needed her If she could not bear it, they would be the most pitiful children in the world, Brandon was unconscious. Savanna took care of him all the time. She sat in front of the bed and never slept. As he had been unconscious for a long time, Savanna began to feel uneasy. On the fifth day, she could no longer endure and ran to Rex.
Savanna asked, âItâs already been five days, but Brandon hasnât woken up.â
Rex brought the nurse into the ward. He lifted Brandonâs eyelid and checked his body. He found nothing wrong with Brandon, so he called Darwin, âDr. Sharp, itâs been five days. Brandon hasnât woken up. I canât find any problems.â
It was unknown what Darwin said on the other side of the phone, but she only heard Rex saying âyesâ.
At the end of the conversation, Savanna saw that Rexâs face was getting 11ore and more serious, and her heart skipped a beat. âRex, what did Dr. Sharp say?â
Rex did not answer. Holding the small flashlight, he carefully examined Brandonâs eyes.
In the end, he put away the small flashlight and pointed to the door. They went out.
Savanna took a few steps to catch up and asked eagerly, âRex, please tell me now.â
Rex turned around. Seeing that she was anxious, he knew that she could not hold on any longer, so he slowly said, âSavanna, youâd better be mentally prepared. Based on the current situation, Brandon might not be able to wake up in a short period of time.â
Savannaâs legs were so weak that she could hardly stand. She tried to calm down and grabbed Rexâs sleeve, trembling. âYou⦠What do you mean? What do you mean by not being able to wake up in a short period of time?
Rex looked at her and spat out each word clearly froin between his teeth, âDonât worry, itâs only temporary. Before the surgery, I already said that after the surgery, all kinds of unpredictable situations will occur. Being a vegetable is one of the possibilities.â
The words âvegetableâ shocked Savanna greatly.
Her body couldnât stop shaking. Her eyes dulled, and her legs were weak. She almost fell to the ground âRe-x, you didnât lie to me, right?â
Listening to Savannaâs sad voice, Rex felt as if acold needle had been thrown into his heart. It was really painful.lle reached out to hold Savanna. His long eyebrows were furrowed, âSavanna, low could I lie to you? However, I promise you that Brandon wonât sleep too long. You talk to him from time to time every day, wipe his body, and tell him how you get along with the children. Maybelle will wake up when he feels the stimulation. You can imagine that he calls asleep or goes on a long trip, anywayâ¦â
Rex could not find any words to comfort Savanna. So he stopped talking Savanna leaned on his shoulder and kept wiping her tears. The tears fell on his shoulder and wet his clothes. He did not stop her. He just let her cry. He thought that maybe after crying like this, she would not feel tired.
After releasing her emotions, she had to face reality.
Savanna cried for a long time. When she stabilized, she realized that she shouldnât do that. So she quickly stood up straight, turned around, and walked into the ward.
When she entered, Brandon was already pushed into the ward by the nurse.
Savanna looked at Brandon, who was lying on the bed like a dead man, with mixed feelings in her heart.
Just as Rexfiad said, Brandon was lying there unconscious. He could not say a word and could not eat anything. However, the days had to continue Savanna wiped her tears again and straightened her back. She sat in front of the bed and held up Brandonâs broad hand. She smoothed out his slender fingers one by one and intertwined her fingers with his. âBrandon, Rex told me that you were asleep. Or maybe you went on a long journey or went on a business trip abroad, but I canât lie to myself. You are alive in front of me. You canât move, you canât laugh, and you canât talk to me. Do you know how painfullan?â
The nurse had already left.
The only response she received was the cold air in the room.
She paused for a moment before continuing, âNo matter what, I will make it through. I will tell you stories every day. I will tell you everything that happened to the children at school or at home. You can rest in peace. You donât have to worry about the company. I will deal with it. You donât have to worry about me.
Anyway, the moment I marry you, it seems that my life is destined to be extraordinary. If you really feel distressed, you can make up for me when you wake up.â
As Savanna spoke, her tears wet her clothes.
Savanna seemed to be afraid that she couldnât hold on and that she would collapse. She got up and ran out.
She had just left, and Jim came in.
He looked at the motionless Brandon on the bed and felt upset. âMr. Cassel, you are so cruel. If you fall asleep like this, Mrs. Cassel will be worried. Mr. Cassel, if you feel sorry for Mrs. Cassel, then hurry up and wake up. In this life, you owe her too much, you know that.â
